RALEIGH – Week Two of the 2017 NFL season was one for the record books for the Wolfpack, as four NC State alums started at quarterback for their respective teams.

Wilson led the Seahawks to a 12-9 victory over the San Francisco 49ers, connecting on 23/39 passes for one touchdown and 198 yards.

While the Chargers were edged 19-17 by the Miami Dolphins, Rivers had an impressive outing as he threw for 331 yards and one touchdown on an efficient 31/39 attempts.

Glennon went 31/45 for 301 yards and one touchdown in the Bears 29-7 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but also threw two interceptions.

Despite only having been with the Colts for two weeks, Brissett was called upon to start and almost led his new team to victory over the Arizona Cardinals. He threw for 216 yards, completing 20/37 attempts.
